The Chicago Cubs faced potential delays to renovations at Wrigley Field to install new signs before the season from a request by local rooftop clubs claiming it would violate agreements. However, the US District Judge denied the request, saying the reason was only a vague possibility. The judge's decision allowed the Cubs to continue renovations and have the new facilities ready for their first home game on April 5.

2.  The Chicago Cubs faced a potential
setback in their plans to renovate Wrigley
Field over the winter in preparation for
preseason games when local rooftop clubs
overlooking the field requested a
temporary halt to the installation of signs
that would potentially violate a contract
made with the team by blocking their view
of the games. However, U.S. District Judge
Virginia Kendall denied the request, saying
that the reason behind it was only a “vague
possibility.”

3.  During the hearing, lawyers representing
the rooftop businesses claimed that the
signs would violate federal antitrust law, as
well as a revenue-sharing agreement made
with the Chicago Cubs. A proposal calls for
adding four advertising signs and two video
scoreboards behind a new set of bleachers
in the outfield. If the judge had granted the
request, the setback could have taken the
entire renovation project off track. On April
5, the Chicago Cubs are scheduled to host
their first home game.
